Leners Patent No. 77,182, dated Apr-z 28, 1868.

IMPRVED BEAN-POT LIPTER AND CARRIER.

'lO ALL PERSONS TO WHOM THE-SE PRESENTS MAY COME:

Be it known that I, GEORGE F. FOSS, of East Boston, in the county of Suffolk, and State of-Mussachusetts, have invented anew and useful Bean-Pot Supporting-Frame or Carrier; and I do hereby declare the same to be fully described in the following'specication, and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure 1 is a front eleva-tion, and n Figures 2 and 3 vertical sections of it und a bean-pot placed within r y 'The purpose of my invention is to enable a person to readily support and carry a pot when containing beans, or u. matter in a heated state.

In the drawings, A` denotes a junction-piece or metallic cross, from the arms ot" which wires a a and ba'b project in directions at right angles with each other, each of the saidwires being formed with a bend, as shown at c, just belenr its junction with an annulus'or bottom-guard, cl, which, arranged with the wires as represented, is fastened to them respectively. v

'lhe two longer wires, a a, which, in fact, are portions'oi` one piee'e,vextend upward and pass through n connection, e, formed as represented, after which they are bent in a circular form, so as to mieke an open handle,

From theeover g of the beun-pot A, a r'od, h, extends upward, andA slides through theconriection e, there being a setsere\r,.z, screwed laterally into such connection and against the rod, such screw being projected from a lever or arm, le.

By raising the cover, the pot may be removed from within the bottom-guard d, but when the pot is resting on thejunction-piece, and is within the guard, and the cover is'forced down upon the mouth of the pot, andthe clamp-screw is` set up, the pot will not only be covered, but will be xed within the carrier, so that a person, by suh, may easily transport it from one place to another by Itaking hold of the handle -of the carrier.

I claim' the ,bean-pot carrier, .made substantially asdescrihed, that is, of the bottom-guard d, the wiresa and b, the coverg, the connection-piece e, and the clamp-screw z', arranged andco'mbi-nyl as specified.

GEORGE F. FOSS.
